Kindle Notes & Highlights
Wowza. He really had the whole sexy, murdery smolder thing down. And I liked it. A lot.

People didn’t seem to realize they’d hurt you if you’d perfected the art of sarcasm. And though she was my mother, I didn’t want to appear any more vulnerable than absolutely necessary.
“Your thoughts are troubled.” “Uh, yeah. Can you blame me? My mom keeps popping in on my dreams uninvited after twenty-three years, and I just got stabbed by a hunter wearing my ex’s skin like a Halloween costume. What do you expect? A tearful family reunion?”

“What is it about the devil’s eggplant that makes you all act like a bunch of spoiled assholes?”
“Bibbity bobbity boo, bitch.”
“Stop using your sexy voodoo on me, you temptress.”
